Hey guys! Today's post is some more gorgeous polishes from GlitterDaze!

*Products in this post were sent to me for the purpose of a 100% honest unbiased review.*

Cotton Candy Coma, Mint Summer Night, Peaches & Dreams, Very Berry Fantasy, and Strawberry Slumber.

Cotton Candy Coma - Three coats.

"Cotton Candy Coma is a light blue shimmery cream polish, light enough for spring yet bright enough for summer. This polish has got many different types of shimmers including a purple flash, as well as purple, pink, gold, and copper glass flecks. The photographs do not do it justice by a longshot, its very sparkly in person. Apply three even coats for opacity as well as a shiny topcoat to make the shimmer stand out!"

 Mint Summer Night - Three coats.

"Mint Summer Night is a light mint green shimmery creme polish, absolutely perfect for the spring! It has got a beautiful pink flash and is accented with gold, blue, and green glass fleck shimmers. The photographs do not do it justice by a long shot, it is very sparkly in person! Apply three even coats for full opacity and seal it in with a high shine topcoat!"

Peaches & Dreams - Three coats.

"Peaches & Dreams is a medium peachy/orangey shimmery cream polish that is loaded with pink and gold shimmer. Although the photographs do not indicate it well, this polish is super sparkly! Apply three even coats for full opacity as well as a good quality shiny topcoat to bring the shimmers to life!" 

Very Berry Fantasy - Two coats.

"Very Berry Fantasy is a shimmery lavender cream polish. It contains a subtle pink flash, as well as pink, purple, blue, gold, and copper glass fleck shimmers. This polish is sure to please purple polish fans! Apply three even coats to reach opacity and make sure to use a high shine topcoat to bring the shimmers to life!"

Strawberry Slumber - Three coats.

"Strawberry Slumber is a delicate light pink shimmery cream polish. It is loaded up with pink, gold, and purple shimmers that really make it pop, especially in the sunlight! It is much more shimmery than the photographs show it to be. Apply three even coats for opacity as well as a coat of high shine topcoat to really bring out the shimmers!"

_______________________________________________________

I can't possibly capture the gorgeous shimmer in these polishes, it's crazy pretty!

They are all very consistent formula wise, a little thick but not goopy at all.

Due the the gorgeous shimmer they are a little thicker than plain cremes, so I recommend applying slowly and carefully. Clean up can be a pain (Especially if you are a blogger anyway!) because the shimmer gets stuck on your skin, so try to avoid making a mess! 

You can purchase GlitterDaze products from www.GlitterDazeNP.com, 

www.meimeisignatures.com and www.ledouxnuage.com.

This collection is available for $11.00 each or $50.00 for the collection in it's entirety.

This collection is very pretty, I'm not a big fan of metallic polishes normally but wow!
My surprise favorites are Amy and Kerry! Kerry is so gorgeous in person, it's like having molten gold on your finger nails! I love the little flakies and shimmer in them it really makes them stand out for me next to plain foil polishes.
The formulas were on par and basically identical, I used three coats on Rikki solely because I had a small nick on one nail.

Zoya has really made me change my mind about textured polishes! 
The first PixieDust collection I was still a little iffy, but these colors are just so beautiful I can't help but love them!
I used just two thin coats for every single one of these, they were very consistent and all applied evenly with ease.
I heard that Liberty may cause staining so I doubled up on basecoat to be safe and have zero staining. I really love these all, I honestly can't pick a favorite! Solange is so beautiful and so sparkly, I'm not typically a gold polish fan but I really love it!

I love these polishes so much for layering! Sana states they can be built up to opacity with three coats but I haven't tried, sorry! They do seem a bit thick to me to build up, but I guess it depends in how thin you paint your coats. They are also a bit too thick for gradients, mine came out okay but it was difficult.

Unrelated but keep Sana in your thoughts :( poor thing just lost her doggy Browny last month.
I know how hard it is to lose a furry friend so lets send her some virtual hugs! *hug*

Zoya Stunning Collection - Swatches & Review! + A Watercolor mani!

Hey guys! Sorry posts have been a little erratic lately! My schedule has been all kinds of crazy.
Today's post is the Zoya Stunning collection! And at the bottom of the post there is a watercolor mani too!

*Products in this post were sent to me for the purpose of a 100% honest unbiased review.*

Darcy - Three coats.
"a full-coverage, sunny yellow cream."

Thandie - Three coats.

"a full-coverage, citrus orange cream."

Micky - Three coats.

"a full-coverage, amazing coral cream."

Yana - Three coats.

"a full-coverage, Geranium pink cream."

Rocky  - Two coats.

"a full-coverage serene blue cream."

Josie - Two coats.

"a full-coverage grassy green cream."

_______________________________________________________

I absolutely love the colors they chose for this collection! they really go together perfectly!
I think I'd have to say Thandie is my favorite, I don't feel like I have a orange like it!
it is both somehow bright but slightly muted at the same time.

Formula wise I feel like Yana and Micky are the best, with a really easy formula. Followed by Josie and Rocky they are very similar. Then Thandie and Darcy being slightly more difficult and a bit streaky.
But they even out very nicely with the third coat and didn't cause me much trouble.
And to be honest not many yellows apply without some streaks am I right?

I also have the Summer Pixies and Irresistible collections to show you guys, soon I promise!

And after seeing Manicure Addict and Lacquerloon's awesome manicures on Instagram today I decided to do a watercolor manicure! It's messy but I like it :)
I think it came out pretty good considering, I just sat down with no plan and ended up with this. 

I love that it looks a little tropical!

Unfortunately I didn't have a awesome polish similar to the kinds they used so I used Wicked Polish Pox, but unlike what they used this has a white base instead of a clear one, and it doesn't have all the different colors of glitter. :( I would have added more but I didn't want the white to get opaque and block the colors!

Long post I know! /whew
